Well ended up buying an open box Rogue Triton 2 for a pretty good discount. I don’t think it was really even open box but who knows. Decided based on price and the fact I plan to use a tube amp that the ss might be a better choice. On another thread a guy mentioned he has the Ares and the Triton and used the Triton for rock and the Ares for acoustic and jazz. I’m definitely more in the former camp.
Phono preamp with best mid bass
Let me explain my ideal sound and see if you guys have any suggestions. I realize speakers and and every other things contributes but looking for a phono that leans naturally toward the sound I’m looking for.
I like a strong mid/upper bass that is highly articulated. Highs that are not overdone and natural. Sub bass is not as important for the music I listen to but what’s down there I prefer punchy rather than big. Natural mids that are well defined. Detailed but not to an extent that compromises robustness or gets too analytical.
Been looking at the tube models. Rogue Ares looks intriguing as they mention some of the traits I am looking for in the reviews I’ve read.
thanks

Cool, congratulations! Enjoy. Nothing better than positive reinforcement after a decision, and as @audphile1 said, should only get better. |
